Mythical versions may also be Hijacked By Satan, sometimes in direct contravention of their original legends. The soldier was "struggling" to recover from his injuries, the Dong-A Ilbo reported, citing medical officials at the Ajou University Medical Center, where he is being treated.In modern literature, the Trickster survives as a character archetype, ranging from the self-aware and purposeful, through the merely impulsive and mischievous, to an openly hostile antagonist. The contamination to his abdominal cavity was severely complicating his recovery, doctors have said. Those surgeries were complicated by the fact that the man had a severe infestation of parasites, some of which were 11 inches long. He has had two surgeries to repair gunshot wounds in his elbow and shoulder, and to the most serious wounds in his abdomen. But he was shot five or six times by North Korean soldiers, including while he was down on the ground. The soldier made a brazen escape through the truce village of Panmunjeom in the DMZ last week, running across the border line toward South Korea. He asked his doctors if he was in South Korea and asked to listen to South Korean pop songs, the paper reported. The soldier, who is in his 20s, has opened his eyes and was able to respond to questions, the Dong-A Ilbo, one of South Korea's biggest newspapers, reported Tuesday. He received 16 quarts of blood after arriving in the hospital. However, the young soldier has pneumonia and Hepatitis-B, as well as blood poisoning that is likely associated with the huge transfusions he needed after being shot by his compatriots during his escape.
Separately, the North Korean soldier who was shot while making a dash for freedom across the Demilitarized Zone last week has regained consciousness and is now breathing on his own, according to multiple news reports from Seoul. On Monday, Trump restored North Korea to the list of state sponsors of terrorism, a largely symbolic act that is unlikely to have a wide practical effect on a country already under a heavy yoke of existing sanctions. Kim and Trump have seemingly been trying to outdo each other with personal insults since the American president derided the North Korean leader as "little rocket man" in September and Kim responded by calling him a "dotard."Īfter the North Korean regime recently dismissed Trump as an "old lunatic," the president wondered aloud on Twitter why Kim would call him such names when Trump doesn't describe him as "short and fat." Instead of making America great again, the Rodong Sinmun recently noted, Trump is making it "weak and poor." North Korea would regularly denounce previous American presidents in the most colorful - and often plainly offensive - terms, but the regularity of its attacks on Trump is notable, as is the way the propagandists in Pyongyang are using Trump's own words against him. The other "crimes" including hurting North Korea's dignity, painting "a black picture of the happy life of the great Korean people," and wanting to stifle North Korea "by force of violence." "The worst crime for which he can never be pardoned is that he dared malignantly hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK," it said, using the official abbreviation for North Korea.Ĭalling Trump an "old slave of money," the paper said he will be "forced to pay dearly for his blasphemy any moment." North Korea took apart the speech in the commentary, listing four "crimes" that Trump had committed. Most pointed of all, he addressed leader Kim Jong Un directly and, referring to founding president Kim Il Sung, said: "North Korea is not the paradise your grandfather envisioned." This was heretical for a country where the Kims are treated like demigods. Trump's speech was filled with words such as "twisted," "sinister," "tyrant," "fascism" and "cult," and he called North Korea "a hell that no person deserves."
